A MESSAGE FROM THE STAFF:
Please use the Bug Tracker to report any technical issues.

This thread is for the purpose of proposing ways to make this site better in any way/shape/form.

Rules:
- If you have a suggestion, be prepared to defend it.
- No flaming. No disrespecting the site.
- Be coherent.

The first thing I'd like to bring up is the verifications. I'm not a bot. I'm a person. Bots can be deleted by an Admin easily.

The second thing I'd like to bring up is that the PM system is a tad clunky. Sent PM's don't appear in the outbox, all PM's are opened, instead of a pick-and-choose system, among other things.

Can there be a button on people's posts that allows you to PM them about that post? I've always liked that feature.

(Sorry to be complaining, we should be glad we have a forum at all. :payne:)

Well, there's always the standard PM button - unless of course you want a quote... I'll do something about that in a moment. :)

Member activation disabled. Finger itching to click "Admin Approval", but resisted. :)

PM system: working on it.

Click the name of a PM, and it appears! :)

Could there perchance be almost an "info" kiosk? Like, a forum with the general Mama, some gen rules, a place for interest threads and such, just so newbies and people looking to run/play a game can scope around there?

I really hate picking at something since this is all so great, but...

When you post, it brings you back to the forum the thread is in, as opposed to the post you just posted in thread. Can you change that to viewing your post after you post, like on new!CR and everywhere else?

Profile->Modify Profile->Look and Layout Preferences->Return to topics after posting by default

Active topics button is on it's way.

What's the difference between Active Topics and the "Show unread posts since last visit." next to your "Welcome, <username>, you have <x> messages, <y> are new."?

It might just be me, but my avatar appears squished, and there is no detentions box so I can fix it. (or at least I didn't see one).

If it has to do with a lower size limit here then on CR that's fine, but it doesn't say so in the section.

I suggest you change your font colours Ryu, It's hard to read.

Now it seems to be fine...
Either thanks if you fixed it, or I'm crazy...  :yogi:

Nasty hack - it won't download the image and work out the size/ratio, so it now uses Javascript to push it to the correct size.

Search for own posts is more difficult and I am working on it.

It's possible to add the choose of the number of posts/page? In the other forums that normally have that... I choose between 40-50 posts/page... :shoe:
